  LONDON (Reuters) - A tiny Scottish village called Lost is to change its name because souvenir hunters keep stealing its road signs.
  

  
  

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Seven signs, each costing around 200 pounds to replace, had been stolen in the last five years, local councillor Bruce Luffman said. He said signs had been spotted as far away as Montreal and Brazil.
  

  
  

  "Many people want to have their photograph taken by it."
